Founded by CEO Jan Goetgeluk in April 2013 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, Virtuix is at the forefront of virtual reality hardware and is the developer of the Omni - the only omni-directional treadmill that addresses mobility in virtual environments. Backed by the passion of its founders and community, Virtuix raised $1.1M via Kickstarter during the summer of 2013 and has pre-sold more than 3,000 Omni units to date. Virtuix's mission is to lead the virtual reality industry to its ultimate goal of 'full virtual reality' as the Omni supports natural movement, engages the entire body, and delivers an unprecedented sense of immersion. Virtuix believes that full virtual reality has the power to revolutionize how we live, learn, work and play.
